Once the sock-knitting capital of Finland, Naantali is now a magnet for Finns seeking whimsical creatures named Moomintroll, Moominmamma, and Moominpappa. The destination is Muumimaailma (or Moomin World in English). The theme park is just a few hours from Helsinki. Although unfamiliar to many Americans, the Moomintroll books by Tove Jansson (1914 - 2001) have been translated into over thirty languages.
